I just got one of these beauties and it is huge! It is quite cool though, and simple. Just a horn driver and plastic tube intercepting the amp’s signal. After seeing one go for big bucks last week on feebay I have decided I’m going to be putting it up for sale, as my Voice Box does what I would need out of this and more, but it is quite interesting. Oh, and did I mention huge?!?! Anyway, if anyone else has some video, pictures, or reviews/opions of these hefty fellas, please share.

I tried out the first Golden Throat in Luc Mettler’s Audio shop in Pigalle, Paris, France. The sound was seriously amazing. However, being a post-war Englishman, I immediately lost two fillings in my teeth and had to stop the session before hurriedly leaving the place with a mumble of appreciation. The Golden Throat delivered a powerful punch.

Now that sounds cool! How do you handle the rest of the equipment while Golden Throating? I wanted to use one of these GTs with my Electravibe but what with two vibes mallets in each hand and a balancing act between the vibes’ expression pedal and my effect pedals I reckoned it was not worth the effort. (Not forgetting my experience trying one out with electric guitar). However, reading your post makes me think I should at least have tried once…..or maybe twice!!!!

That would definitely take some practice to master.

I was watching Frampton and Joe Walsh on YouTube last night to see how they managed on stage. They have the tube strapped to their microphone running parallel to it all the way down the stand, but leaving about 4 extra inches of length past the ball of the microphone. You would definitely need a boom long enough to keep the stand behind your vibes.
